We began printing Wednesday (October 7th). I was there to witness the
‘birth’ of STEEP DREAMS, so to speak.

After so many months (indeed years!) of work, it was a joy seeing the
printing machine spitting out the pages with such wonderful colours.

I am now beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and I feel as
though I am setting off on the final summit push!

My fingers are crossed for a trouble free printing process.

Can’t wait to feel and flip through that first copy!

On June 1st 2009, Bank Audi invited the 5th graders of the International College (IC) (170 students) to meet Maxime Chaya, and watch his North Pole and Everest documentaries.

The students were extremely touched and impressed and…. couldn’t stop asking questions.

Maxime sent off the students with signed postcards featuring his 7 Summits.
